Default Chronoed the Thor & BH209 combo
Left early today so i could get a chance to chrono the 250gr thors with 90 and 100gr BH209 loads. I did not weigh these loads.

100gr bh209 - 1882 1901 1887 - Avg 1884

Im going to load up 110gr and 120gr BH209 loads right now but i will weigh these out.

Pretty cool set up to have!

What velocities did you get with the 90 grain load Devil?

How was your accuracy holding up with each increase in powder load or was this just a test in velocity?

Shoots great with 110gr bh209. 120 i never tried as the recoil can be pretty harsh.
